Jour d'Hermès Absolu
Jour d'Hermès Absolu by Hermès is a feminine-leaning eau de parfum from 2014 in the premium price tier. It opens with grapefruit and apricot, moves into sambac jasmine and gardenia and dries down to oakmoss. Expect around 7 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Grapefruit Bitter, slightly sweaty citrus. More grown-up than lemon.
- Apricot Warm, jammy stone fruit. Often hiding inside osmanthus.
Heart
- Sambac Jasmine Greener, more tea-like jasmine. Less indolic than grandiflorum.
- Gardenia Creamy white floral with a mushroomy edge. Lush and old-Hollywood.
Dry-down
- Oakmoss Damp forest floor. Bitter, green and the backbone of every chypre.
